Some of you may remember reading my post about my grandson, Lucas, several years ago. He was born with a rare form of Muscular Dystrophy called Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy. The doctors told us he would be "lucky" if he made it to his first birthday. Lucas spent the first six months of his life in NICU at Children's Hospital in Dallas. During his NICU stay, Lucas had a feeding tube and a trach put in. We told that most likely he would always have to have these things. They predicted that he would never walk, and those same "specialists" said that if he made through his first year, he had a good chance of living into his 20's.

BUT GOD....

Here we are, a little over 2 years later... Lucas had his feeding tube removed this year. He is set to have his trach removed in 2017. He is learning to walk right now and after so many months of silence... He is making sounds and can even throw a pretty good hissy fit when he really wants to, PRAISE THE LORD! (I forgot to tell you that they also said he probably would not move a whole lot because of the MD. But they don't know my God!)

So if you just need a good reason to smile today and have 3 minutes to spare, check out this video. You have to watch it to the end if you want to hear him giggle. A precious sound to this GRANNY's ears! God is GOOD!
